洗脸——1946年至1948年农村土改中的干部整改

"Wash Your Face": Rectification of Cadres in the Land Reform 1946-1948

国共三年内战时期解放区开展的土地改革极大地改变着中国传统的社会政治经济秩序,对中共的领导力和控制力也是一个新的挑战,农村基层干部整改就是其应对这一考验的重要一环。干部整改体现的民主建政愿望、群众意志、反贪廉政诉求、阶级站队做法,鲜明指示出中共建立一个新社会的理想和要求。其过程和结果,既是中共非同一般的控制力的集中反映,同时又提示出作为正向执政道路迈进的政治力量,面对复杂的社会政治问题,其理论准备和实际经验都尚在积累,对变化中的中国社会的认识将会是一个长期的过程。

Land reform in the Liberated Areas during the three-year civil war between the Communists and the Nationalists brought fundamental changes to China's traditional social, political and economic order, and posed new challenges to the ability of the CPC (Communist Party of China) to direct and control the situation. The rectification of base-level cadres in rural areas was an important link in the CPC's response to this challenge. The desire to establish a democratic government, the will of the masses, the call for clean government and the practice of grouping people by class in the rectification movement clearly point to the CPC's ideals and demands for a new society. While revealing its outstanding capacity for control, the process and results of rectification also presented the CPC as a political force on the way to holding power. Faced with complex social and political issues, the CPC was still in the course of building up its theoretical foundation and practical experience; gaining an understanding of China's changing society would be a long-term process.
